Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided to calibrate a closed-loop envelop tracking system for a power amplifier of a wireless transmitter using standardized modulation signals. In one novel aspect, a closed-loop adaptive method is used to track changes in PA nonlinearity due to environmental or circuitry changes during operating condition using standardized modulation signals. In one embodiment, the PA supply voltage compensation lookup table (LUT) and/or the phase compensation LUT is updated during normal operation to sustain good linearity and efficiency performance. In another novel aspect, the PA target response is adjusted in response to changes in PA-related system configuration, such as changes in PA bias settings, and/or indicators measured from the transmitter such as changes in impedance or temperature changes for the RF module or the PA module. The PA supply voltage compensation LUT and/or the phase LUT is updated accordingly upon adjustment of the PA target response.

Abstract: A circuit module includes a power amplifier, a switch, and a bypass capacitor. The power amplifier has a signal input node coupled to an input signal, a signal output node to generate an output signal, and a power input node coupled to a supply output signal of a supply modulator. The switch is coupled between the power input node of the power amplifier and the bypass capacitor. The bypass capacitor is an equivalently removable bypass capacitor coupled between the switch and a ground level.

Abstract: Techniques and examples pertaining to variation calibration for envelope tracking on chip are described. Envelope tracking (ET) statistics among multiple wireless-capable mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) may be collected in laboratory. Optimal ET parameters may be determined based on ET statistics. An ET setting file may be generated for ET factory calibration. In production lines, the ET setting file may be loaded into each mobile device for ET factory calibration.
